The happiest of happy anniversaries to Mr Hook. 20 years! I’d say you deserve a medal but you probably wouldn’t hear me 😂

Happy anniversary also to my brother and sister in law, because we’re from the West Country and that’s how we roll! Have I had to awkwardly explain I’m not married to my brother more than once? Yes, yes I have.

Just a little reminder that I’m off to The Big Flock this weekend, and the lovely Anna is enjoying a couple of days well earned rest, so the shop will be shut today (Friday) and tomorrow (Saturday).

Back open on Monday from 11am!

I am absolutely delighted to announce that we are partnering with Cats Protection for their summer Craft for Cats event.

Designed exclusively for Cats Protection, the crochet kit comes in five colour options and allows you to make your own storage basket, complete with cat ears!

Use your adorable handmade basket to store your cat’s favourite toys, stash your crafting supplies, or simply as a decoration for your home.

Suitable for complete beginners and crochet pros ages eight plus looking to try a fun cat-themed project. And the best bit? You’ll be helping cats just by taking part.

New month, new window display. It’s impossible to take a good photo of! If you look closely enough you can spot me gurning in the reflection trying to get the best shot!

Today I did something terrible…I totally forgot that I had a workshop booked and I was late! I’d booked my student in a couple of weeks ago and somehow missed writing it in my diary. I felt awful.

She, however, was nothing but gracious and in just over two hours created this beautiful ribbed basket.

So Thursdays question is…what’s the worst thing you’ve forgotten?!

Hello all, we've arrived safely back in the Shire and unloaded Big Bertha but I'm knackered so no Meet & Make tonight I'm afraid. It'll be back on Monday 11 May after the bank holiday.

If you're missing out, you can always pop along tomorrow (Tuesday) from 2-4pm to join our afternoon Meet & Make.

Thanks,
Tamsin x
